Automatic Creation of Multilingual Semantic Networks from Wikipedia
(2016) Sixth Swedish Language Technology Conference (SLTC 2016)- Abstract
- This paper describes the automatic creation of semantic networks from Wikipedia. Following Lipczak et al. (2014), we constructed the graphs corresponding to the semantic networks by merging across languages the categories manually assigned by the users. This results in a network of related concepts for each entity of Wikipedia. We used these networks as a component of an entity linking system. the networks showed they could improve the results by 1% over an already strong baseline.
